Abstract:
Objective To discuss the clinical value of serum tumor specific growth factor (TSGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in early diagnosis of thyroid cancer.Methods Eighty thyroid cancer patients (thyroid cancer group),120 nodular goiter patients (nodular goiter group),and 80 healthy adult (blank control group) were enrolled in this study.The level of TSGF and VEGF in two groups were detected by ELISA and compared.Results The level of TSGF and VEGF in thyroid cancer group and nodular goiter group were significantly higher than those in blank control group (P < 0.05).Conclusion Serum TSGF and VEGF have some clinical value in early diagnosis of thyroid cancer.
